Overview
Profile summary
I am a lecturer in Marine Biology and member of the Ecophysiology and Development Research group, in the Marine Biology and Ecology Research Centre. I graduated in BSc Marine Biology at the University of Liverpool, before completing a Masters degree in Shellfish Biology at Bangor University, and a PhD in Molecular Ecophysiology (thermal stress) at the British Antarctic Survey and Swansea University.
I teach across undergraduate and postgraduate Marine Biology programmes.
